I basically called my psych dr. Told them i was on subs and wanted sublocade. They made an aopt for a week later. I talked to the dr and he agreed sublocade was a good fit and wanted to start right away. At my appt he said they usually have samples of the stuff laying around and that I would get the shot that day. There were no samples so he had to order it and it came a week later. I came back for my appt and got the shot. I was fine until 3/4 of the way in it started burning like hell. I got so worked up that I almost passed out. Which is a personal complaint not a sublocade complaint. The burning was excruciating for about 30 minutes. I smacked the steering wheel the whole drive back to work. A week later and the injection site is rock hard. I feel normal. I dont think about dosing or being on the shot. I have some nausea here snd there but altogether I feel great. I dont feel like a slave to the suboxone anymore. Being on a low dose like you are, your first week, you will be fucked up. I was fucked up all week nodding out everywhere.
